This application represents a competitive renewal of a highly-successful institutional postdoctoral training grant based in Stanford's Center for Interdisciplinary Brain Sciences Research (CIBSR), under the direction of Dr. Allan Reiss. The training program is situated within an exceptionally diverse and research-intensive environment that is designed to facilitate the development of a new-generation of investigators who have the knowledge and skills necessary to conduct innovative, interdisciplinary research at the forefront of child psychiatry and neurodevelopment. Physician (MD, PhD) and PhD candidates who have the potential to develop highly productive preclinical, clinical or translational research careers are preferentially recruited and accepted into the program. Physician candidates are eligible if they have completed at least three years of psychiatry, pediatrics or neurology training and/or wish to combine the T32 program with their current clinical residency or fellowship training. PhD candidates are eligible if they have completed their doctorate with distinction in relevant fields including psychology, neuroscience and computational (data) sciences. Candidates who articulate a strong desire to further develop their expertise, experience and productivity to address critical precision medicine themes in pediatric neuropsychiatry and neurodevelopment are preferentially selected. The program is now in its 26th year. Twenty-nine postgraduate trainees (5 MDs, 2 MD/PhDs and 22 PhDs) have been in the program in the past 15 years. We successfully attained all predefined metrics during the current grant period. The program attracted a very large pool of first-rate applicants (n=75), filled all funded slots (four per year, total of 10 fellows through May 2020), retained all trainees for 2-3 years (except one fellow who is joining the faculty after one year), and prepared trainees for successful careers as independent investigators. We also continue to diversify the assignment of mentors and consider co-mentorship the “norm”. Though topically-focused, the scientific scope of the program is broad, with basic, clinical and translational research- oriented fellows. Several new junior mentors (who will “partner” with senior mentors) have been added, including three faculty who are graduates of Stanford postdoctoral fellowships. We remain committed to attracting trainees who come from an underrepresented minority background (two of 10 in the current period). During the next 5-year grant period, we will train an additional 9-11 fellows. Plans to increase MD or MD/PhD recruitment from the current 2 of 10 fellows have been established. To meet our goal of significantly expanding the knowledge base and methods of each trainee, we will continue to establish individually tailored didactic, mentorship and research plans for each fellow while promoting cross-fertilization of scientific knowledge across the trainee class. Using this approach, we focus the trainee's curriculum and research training on bridging traditional, between-discipline gaps in methodology, and on focusing on the application of interdisciplinary solutions to complex precision medicine issues in child psychiatry and neurodevelopment.

该申请代表了对非常成功的机构博士后培训补助金的竞争性更新 位于斯坦福大学跨学科脑科学研究中心（CIBSR），在 Dr. 艾伦·赖斯 (Allan Reiss) 的培训项目坐落在一个极其多样化和研究密集的环境中。 旨在促进新一代调查人员的发展，他们拥有知识和能力 在儿童精神病学前沿进行创新、跨学科研究所需的技能 具有高度发展潜力的神经发育医师（MD、PhD）和博士生。 优先招募和接受富有成效的临床前、临床或转化研究职业 医生候选人如果完成了至少三年的精神病学、儿科课程，就有资格。 或神经病学培训和/或希望将 T32 计划与其当前的临床住院医师或研究员相结合 如果博士候选人在相关领域以优异的成绩完成了博士学位，则有资格获得培训。 包括心理学、神经科学和计算（数据）科学的候选人。 渴望进一步发展他们的专业知识、经验和生产力，以解决关键的精准医学问题 优先选择儿科神经精神病学和神经发育方面的主题。 该项目现已进入第 26 个年头，共有 29 名研究生学员（5 名医学博士、2 名医学博士/博士和 22 名博士）。 过去 15 年我们一直在参与该计划，目前已成功达到所有预定义的指标。 该计划吸引了大量一流申请者（n = 75），填补了所有资助名额（四个）。 每年，截至 2020 年 5 月，总共 10 名学员），将所有学员保留 2-3 年（除了一名学员） 加入一年后准备的教师），以及作为独立调查员取得成功职业生涯的受训者。 我们还继续使导师的分配多样化，并将共同导师视为“常态”。 该项目以主题为重点，科学范围广泛，包括基础、临床和转化研究—— 增加了几位新的初级导师（他们将与高级导师“合作”），包括 三名毕业于斯坦福大学博士后奖学金的教师我们仍然致力于吸引实习生。 他们来自代表性不足的少数族裔背景（本期 10 名中的 2 名）。 在接下来的 5 年资助期内，我们将培训额外的 9-11 名研究员，以增加 MD 或 MD/PhD。 为了实现我们大幅扩张的目标，我们已经从目前的 10 名研究员中招募了 2 名。 每个学员的知识库和方法，我们将继续建立个性化的教学， 为每个研究员提供指导和研究计划，同时促进科学知识的交叉传播 使用这种方法，我们将学员的课程和研究培训重点放在桥接上。 传统的、学科间的方法论差距，并注重跨学科的应用 儿童精神病学和神经发育中复杂的精准医学问题的解决方案。
